CD“Our fourth studio album is the four of us, just as we first started recording together as a band. It’s raw and honest and feels like coming home; something that resonates deeply in this moment of our lives. We are home in so many senses of the word; in the last couple of years we’ve started setting roots, finding life partners, building families, growing gardens. We got dogs, (you can hear them in the background if you listen close). We wrote songs about life and relationships. We recorded them in our home studios. We saw the beginnings and endings of life cycles while making this record, the beauty and fragility of the human experience. So it’s only fitting that this album is self-titled, it’s our story, who we are now and how we got here. Welcome to our living room.”The story of Lucius comes full circle on this new self-titled and self-produced album. It was loosely inspired by a re-recording of their debut album, 'Wildewoman', roughly ten years after its release. When they got together to write, it was often talking through relationships, grief, and home life. The roots of this album are domestic, personal experiences. The music performances on this entire record are filled with a craft that brings the most out of the words. This isn't simply beats and melody while the singers tell a tale. The instruments intertwine in ways that are both organic and purposeful. Lucius often plays with duality, reflection, and symmetry, echoed in their onstage look, singing as one voice - 'dressing the sound' as they call it. You can hear the personalities come through on this record; Holly is more of the introvert and Jess more of the extrovert, the balance between inner dialogue and an invitation.
